<A NAME="highlights"><B><FONT SIZE=+3>M</FONT>AJOR CHANGES:</B></A>

<UL>
	<li> This is a bug-fix release for several bugs (two of which
	are dire) which were discovered in the 3.9.0 release.

</UL>

<!--------------------------------------------------------------------------->

<A NAME="configure"><B><FONT SIZE=+3>C</FONT>HANGES IN THE SOFTWARE CONFIGURATION:</B></A>

<UL>

	<li> Several defines were missing from tif_config.vc.h which
	are necessary to compile the library using MSVC.

	<li> Colorized tests were actually not enabled as expected.
	Parallel tests mode is now also enabled so that tests can be
	run in parallel, and test output is sent to .log files.

</UL>

<!--------------------------------------------------------------------------->

<A NAME="libtiff"><B><FONT SIZE=+3>C</FONT>HANGES IN LIBTIFF:</B></A>

<UL>
	<li> libtiff/tif_write.c (TIFFAppendToStrip): Remove cast
	which caused libtiff to output a wrong last strip with
	byte-count and strip-offset of zero.  This cast was added on
	the day of the 3.9.0 release.

	<li> libtiff/tif_dirwrite.c: Back out changes from 2007-11-22
	that resulted in the final strip not being written in some
	circumstances.
